700, 000rublee. This subsidy, with rail-
way communication with the interior,

topol. Sebastopol has during recent

watering place, more especially since
the completion Of the new Marine
Boulevard and o number OF bath
ing institutions. The yearly in
creasing number OF summer visit
ors and tourists has given rise TO num-
her of large, well-equipped, and COM
modious hotels. Sebastopol, however,
does not compare as watering resort
with the lovely Yalta, only four hours
distant along the coast. / have really
never been able TO understand why the
magnificent southern coast of the Cri-

tourists.

. ukasc Of Catbarine II. on the site OF
the old Tartar settlement Akhtiar; but
Nieholas was the first Gar TO invest the
